The biggest question that everyone asks me is the one above.  Is P90X worth it?  Lets break this down a little bit and figure out if a $200 or less investment is worth it.  It’s always about cost and results, so lets keep it simple.  When you see a workout program on television you automatically think it’s a gimmick!  I tried all kinds of gimmicky things like the Ab Roller, the Total Gym, and so on.  Is P90X a gimmick?

Insanity is super hard as well but a different degree of difficulty.  See the main difference is that you don’t need any extra equipment like P90x.  P90x requires items like a pull up bar an weights
